Township seeks buildings to demolish

Here's a great opportunity for owners of old, dilapidated and unsafe houses in Walnut Township: Walnut Township is looking for a few more candidates for house demolition. With three eyesores removed in 2013 and three more slated for removal early this year, we are definitely on a roll and want to continue. The good news - no the great news - is that it will not cost the property owner anything for these dilapidated and unsafe properties to be removed. We will do all of the work for you. What a deal! There are no strings, just a willingness and desire to help see your neighborhood rid of these unsightly structures and increase property values. Without question, removing an eyesore will increase the value of the property the house resides on.

To qualify, the house must be condemned by the Fairfield County Department of Health or deemed unsafe by the fire department. Funds are limited and will not last long. If you have a property that you feel qualifies, contact Trustee Terry Horn at terryhorn@walnuttwp.com or 740-503-2200. If the house qualifies, we also can have dilapidated out-buildings, sheds and structures removed at the same time.

Neighbors, if you know of a house that you feel would qualify you can make those known as well. Give us the property address and we will try and contact the owner; you will remain anonymous.
